INDIANAPOLIS – When the Indiana Pacers play preseason games next week in Manila, Philippines, and Taipei, Taiwan, the trip can be followed on Pacers.com in three languages.
Fans going to Pacers.com/GlobalGames will have three buttons to choose from: (1) English; (2) Mandarin; (3) Filipino. They then can get coverage as the Pacers practice and prepare for games against Houston Thursday, Oct. 10, in Manila and Sunday, Oct. 13, in Taipei.
“Our trip in 2009 to Taipei and Beijing gave the Pacers a whole new audience and interest in the team,” said Pacers Sports & Entertainment Chief Operating Officer Rick Fuson. “We now have some very loyal fans in Asia and this is a tremendous opportunity to further connect with them and grow that fan base.”
